All Property Is Theft? Keep Your F*&king Hands Off Me, etcetera and so forth

Are personal rights and property rights mutually exclusive? Does anyone even care? I'm not sure if I do, but this looked interesting earlier today. So let's see if it holds up.

Property owners should have discretion over their property, but their property rights end where your right to life begins. If they do not want to assume responsibility for and protect you on your way to and from work, they should not be permitted to take away your ability to defend yourself during those times.

Whoa, how'd we get to the right to bear arms? I guess everything does in the USA.

The article is kinda all over the place, and a little bit stupid. So in hindsight, I'm not sure if it does hold up.
